For some reason, I decided to check one of my laptops that I was using at the time of the crash. It was my go-to environment for the “Free Pascal conversion” project.

It turns out that I had actually not lost everything I thought I had lost. So I have tinkered some with an alternative setup here to see if I can get things to compile and build again.

I need to get a version out that doesn’t require a license. As previously stated, there will only be “mL” releases from now on. The “license” will be “free for non-commercial use”.

So far, FM has been re-compiled at version 2024.1 and handles an “invalid license” (or missing license) as it should.

I’ll keep you posted.
